A
GW5S
JEROME
wouldnt
htrvc
known
the
path
through
the
•,-oods
waj
there!
"Did
she
know
ibout
the
path,
Katy?"
Deputy
5herift*
Dave
Argus
asked,
Katy
Elmo
shook
her
head,
don't
v
«ow.
Site
might
have
known,
I
suppose."
'Of
course
she
could
have
Imown
about
the
path,"
Ted
Jordan
spoke
angrily.
"Agnes
had
lived
around
here
all
her
life.
She
could
have
heard
of
it—she
might
even
have
wiilked
It
sometime.
\nd
what
was
to
keep
her
from
mding
it
the
night
she
was
killed?"
Dave
shrugged.
"Bui
she
prob-
iljly
didn't
know
about
it
and
even
it
she
did,
I
doubl
if
she
was
familiar
enough
with
this
woods
to
want
to
walk
it
in
pitch
darkness.
No,"
he
shook
his
head.
JI
Ihink
Miss
Jerome
was
waylaid
A
-
cen
the
road
and
Ihe
house—
the
lane
probably
—
and
her
.-_y
was
dropped
0(7
(he
foot
>ridge.
Maybo
Ihe
murderer
hoped
it
would
be
called
an
accidental
eath
from
a
fall
on
those
rocks."
It
was
a
straw
and
Katy
grasped
,.
"It
could
have
beenl
-Oh,
it
•nust
have
been!"
"Katy.
Katy!"
Ted
cried.
"Don't
m
see
what
Dave's
doing
to
you?
le's
trying
to
make
it
seem
like
ou
did
it!"
Then,
"I
won't
have
I,
Dave.
You
let
Katy
alone!"
Dave
Argus
didn't
even
bother
o
laugh,
but
there
was
a
twinkle
cep
in
his
voice.
"Come
out
of
it,
*crl.
Nobody's
accusing
Katy
of
i
anything."
i
"Of
course
not,
Ted,"
Knly
tried
::lo
sniind
as
if
she
helievccl
it.
^
Ted
growled,
"Just
see'that
you
t
don't."
He
fell
for
his
pipe,
found
';it
on
the
mantel,
leaned
over
to
top
it
on
on
andiron,
and
then
tamped
fresh
tobacco
into
its
tra-
jrsnt
bowl,
all
very
dclibcralcly.
When
he
finished,
he
could
say
quietly,
"Sorry,
Argus.
Bui
I
won't
see
Katy
cashed
around."
JT
was
10:30
when
ttre
two
men
left
tr>gether,
Dave
to
ride
with
Ted
as
far
as
the
highway
where
he
had
parked
his
own
car
whtn
he
.stumbled
in
the
dark
along
the
path
which
he
said
Agnes"
Jerome
had
not
taken.
And,
later,
as
she
stared
wide-
eyed
into
the
darkness
ot
her
bedroom,
she
had
Ihe
uncomfortable
feeling
that
Dave
was
right,
so
right.
Even
if
Agnes
Jerome
had
known
about
the
short-cut
to
the
mailbox,
which
Kaly
doubted,
she
would
not
have
been
familiar
enough
with
Ihe
rough
palh
to
have
risked
it
in
the
darkness.
Dave
Argus
was
right,
Katy
reasoned
with
herself.
If
Agnes
had
been
followed,
she
would
have
had
a
chance
.
,
.
but
Ihe
killer
had
boon
waiting
for
her.
He
had
come
.
.
.
wailed
and
killed.
Here.
Kaly
sat
up
in
bed,
suddenly
weak.
The
palms
of
her
hands
fell
clammy-cold
when
she
pressed
them
to
her
face.
Where
docs
that
leave
me?"
she
thought
franlically,
almost
wishing
that
she
had
(aught
Criminology
or
something
instead
of
English
Lit
and
Composition
m
and
IV.
Maybe
then
she
would
know
if
she
were
more
suspect
than
ever
despite
Dave
Argus's
assurances.
.
.
.
Sometime,
somehow,
lulled
by
the
comforting
rhythm
of
Major's
breathing
on
his
rug
beside
her
bed,
she
slept.
Dawn
was
becoming
mauve
and
pink
and
crimson
out
her
east
window
when
she
awoke,
.is
tired
as
if
she
had
not
slept
at
all.
'Monday,"
she
thought,
"and
what
a
ghastly
hour.
Especially
when
you
have
nothing
to
do
...
no
school
lo
go
to."
That
was
what
hurt
so,
of
course.
What
she
missed,
next
to
Chris.
She
flung
back
the
covers,
swuns
icr
legs
over
(ho
side
of
the
bed.
^
frowned.
Major
wasn't
there,
thick
coat
tickling
her
bare
£ceL.
She
pulled
on
her
robe,
found
her
slippers.
Jt
wasnt
like
Major
to
leave
her.
She
found
the
dog
In
the
kitchen,
sitting
on
his
lean
haunches
at
a
window
overlooking
the
stairway
and
the
barn.
He
thumped
the
floor
with
a
warj
UiH
when
sh«
spoke
his
name.
"What
is
it,
Major?"
She
went
to
look
out,
too.
The
barn
looked
as
it
always
did,
only
perhaps
a
little
more
forlorn
in
the
gray
light
of
early
morning
Through
an
open
door—
should
that
door
be
open?
Perhaps,
she
thought
Ted
might
have
forgotten
to
close
it
when
he
got
the
wood
last
night
—she
could
see
the
ricks
of
apple
wood
and
oak.
The
garden
tools
were
stored
there,
too,
and
the
lawn
mover,
and
Chris
had
ripped
out
some
dilapidated
slalls
and
made
a
garage.
Beside
her,
Major
stilrod,
and
a
growl
began
deep
in
his
barrel
chest.
.
.
.
Was
there
a
movement,
out
there?
was,
Katy
knew,
althoiiRh
she
didn't
see
it.
Major's
backbone
seemed
to
rise,
sharp-ridged
Ihrongh
his
coat.
She
thought!
"He's
come
back—
the
killer
has
come-
back!"'
She
ran
through
(he
house
to
the
front
hall.
Ted's
number
her
mind
groped
for
it
as
she
snatched
up
the
telephone
Ted
tad
said
the
killer
might
come
back.
After
an
eternity,
she
realized
what
was
happening
she
was
hearing
absolutely
nothing
but
her
own
frightened
breathing.
No
"live"
sound
of
an
open
telephone
line,
no
operator,
nothing!
"Major!"
she
cried
then.
"Major
come
wilh
me!'*
'
Halfway
to
(own,
wi(h
Major
ercc(
in
the
seat
beside
hc-r
and
the
road
unrolling
behind
the
car
like
a
dirly
gray
ribbon
from
a
runaway
spool,
she
realized
she
could
not
go
to
Ted.
Not
looking
like
this!
She
was
wearing
her
chcnilt*
robe
and
sculled
bedroom
slippers
and
no
make-up
but
her
terror
Coins
to
Ted
like
this
was
impossible.
Heavens!
she
thought,
Mrs.
Porter
—
dear
correct
Abigail
Porter—
would
be
horrified,
but
not
so
horrillcd
that
her
chattering
tongue
would
be
slilled.
